Your Favourite Faction Who Won?

[MasterBigAb]

Hasn't anyone seen the preview DG gave of Eriador?

And hasn't anyone seen KK's nonpublished preview of dale ?

i am sure, once you guys out there have seen the whole new reworked dale and eriador units, you will vote them right to the top, may be not more than gondor, but between 1-5

Somebody has messed with the results!
None voted for the elves the poll has been set up by the damn elvsies!

Hey hey hey! I'm the only one who supervises poll results!

[Finnduil]

Loool, both elven factions owned dwarves.

There you're right...it's a conspiracy, a ignominy conspiracy
Catch this elves, hunt them, burn them !!!

but i am really surprised Harad got so less votes
beautiful units, great mumakils....what you want more ?!?

[Fulgrim88]

Heavy Armour.

Once you're used to run into arrow showers unharmed and kill 800Goblins with 100 Dwarves, theres no turning back
Nah, seriously. I don't know what it is but something has always kept me from playing Harad. Mumakhils are great and all but still....maybe i'm just not the light infantry + javelineer type dunno

[Lordinquisitor]

Harad got Mûmakil and pirates.

PIRATES! That alone is one reason to play harad. Get used to Harad soon, because the only faction you can play on September 19 will be harad.

[Finlander]

Rohan should get more powerful cavalry. They should be number one on it.

But best lotr feeling factions are:
1.Gondor
2.Rohan
3.Mordor
4.Isegard


And the very last is:
Dwarves..

[TheCrakFox]

I'm enjoying playing as Rhun, they have a great starting point with a good economy and a balanced selection of units, I guess I'll try out Gondor or some Elves next to see what all the fuss is about.

Vanilla elves are not that different from other factions archers and infantry. If you want to play as elves that really feel like elves try using RR/RC. It makes them stand out in a big way.

I understand your jealousy, elves are pretty much perfect.

[Fulgrim88]

elves are pretty much the perfect target for a good, heavy battle axe

It's always cute how melee units think they have a chance against expert archers.

[Fulgrim88]

Given enough armour, they do

That's the main thing i like about dwarves. Hundreds of Archers wasting their arrows on my Ironguard and they just keep on coming..
And we're not talking Peter Jackson style here. Arrows are limited. Once forced to melee, pretty elven faces get smashed

Refer to the book rather than this silly mod . You must understand that the Mirkwood archers are able to hit "bird's eye in the dark", and that dwarves cannot fight blindfolded.

Last time i checked this was about the mod^^

It's hard to compare them lorewise. Of course dwarves wouldn't stand a chance against elves in woodland (unless they wear fullplate with metal faceplate - which didn't exist in middle earth until P.J. put it into the movies for teh shiny lookz) - but why should they? Theres no metal in the woods, so no need for dwarves to go or fight there.
Elves, on the other hand, would fail at besieging a dwarven mountain city. All the aim in the world won't help them, caged in a short & narrow hallway, exposed to close combat.
They might get 1-2 shots before the dwarves reach them, but wont hit any vital parts. There are shields in the lore world after all

Sadly it's been too long since i read the books, so i can't come up with some euphemistic "elves = autoaim"-quote myself, but i distantly remember that dwarves were depicted a lot more mythical than in the movies. E.g. being made from the stone they live in or something like that. Would make up for an interesting question if arrows would actually do much harm to them

The Dwarves breathe so loud...well, you know the rest.
